Gravitational Effects on the Neutrino Oscillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The propagation of neutrinos in a gravitational field is studied. A method of calculating a covariant quantum-mechanical phase in a curved space-time is presented.

An Exact Universal Gravitational Lensing Equation

open access: yes, 1998
We first define what we mean by gravitational lensing equations in a general space-time. A set of exact relations are then derived that can be used as the gravitational lens equations in all physical situations.

Shadows and photon spheres in static and rotating traversable wormholes

open access: yesNuclear Physics B
We explore the shadows and photon orbits of both static and rotating traversable wormholes by employing a redshift function in combination with two distinct shape functions.

Gravitational lensing in a plasma from worldlines [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D
We study the deflection of light rays in a cold, nonmagnetized plasma using the worldline framework. Starting from Synge’s Hamiltonian formalism, we construct a position-space action and use it perturbatively to calculate light bending angles.

Precision Weak Gravitational Lensing Using Velocity Fields: Fisher Matrix Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Weak gravitational lensing measurements based on photometry are limited by shape noise: the variance in the unknown unlensed orientations of the source galaxies.

Roulettes: a weak lensing formalism for strong lensing: I. Overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a new perspective on gravitational lensing. We describe a new extension of the weak lensing formalism capable of describing strongly lensed images.

Gravitational lensing in modified Newtonian dynamics

open access: yes, 2001
Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) is an alternative theory of gravity that aims to explain large-scale dynamics without recourse to any form of dark matter.

On the Electromagnetic Energy Flow Along Geodesics

open access: yesRadio Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract We present a field‐theoretic framework for modeling electromagnetic energy propagation in heterogeneous media by introducing the concept of electromagnetic geodesics. Unlike traditional ray optics, which assumes either a straight‐line propagation or a simple bending in refractive media, our approach formulates wave propagation as geodetic ...

Describing variations of the Fisher-matrix across parameter space

open access: yes, 2016
Forecasts in cosmology, both with Monte-Carlo Markov-chain methods and with the Fisher matrix formalism, depend on the choice of the fiducial model because both the signal strength of any observable as well as the model nonlinearities linking observables

Influence of the local Universe on weak gravitational lensing surveys [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
Observations of the large-scale structure (LSS) implicitly assume an ideal Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) observer with the ambient structure having no influence on the observer.
